Beautiful morning again. I will miss
my chill under the trees when we are in Oz. As I said before my chill time is what keeps me going and I really don’t know how I survive through winter. When Ali and Diane were Home Schooled I loved being able to do lessons under the trees. When we moved 
here the place was practically bare. Over time we have planted more and more trees and the place is our own personal forest now. It is amazing how cool it is under the trees – the temperature must be at least 10 degrees cooler under them on a hot day.
Hubby left for the workshop saying he would be back late as his cousins were coming to see him at 2.00pm. I was not pleased as he needs to rest as much as possible. When he’s there he can’t sit still and just has to do something. Now that his toe is healing so nicely I worry - being on his feet too long could mean a step backwards in the healing process. The toe has been like this almost two years now.
Once he left I got on with my daily chores and spring cleaning. After the hectic day yesterday I did not have much energy and did not overdo things. In fact late morning we all watched a good movie on TV – Rat Race. It has Mr. Bean in it as an Italian with a sleep disorder. We had a good laugh which as is said is the best medicine you can have.
Ali and Travis have been invited to Sun City for the weekend. I played with Travis while Ali was packing and cooking him something for supper. They were only leaving at 4.30pm which meant they would be on the road when it was Travis’s suppertime. Hubby came home rather cross as the cousins hadn’t turned up and didn’t even have the manners to phone and apologize. He sat waiting for nothing.
Ali and Travis left at four. By now it was overcast and cool. There was a little rain too- only 3mm this time. I was still feeling lazy so sat watching TV with a coffee and a Caramel and Custard Danish that Hubby had stopped to buy on the way home. Delicious. Opening the Engen Blockhouse 1-Stop was the best thing ever.
After that I wasn’t hungry so just made a light supper for Hubby and Diane. There was still lightning and thunder around so we vegetated in front of the TV. Diane saw ET for the first time and then went to bed. I sat and watched Blood Diamond again before I went to bed. I found that such an excellent movie – Movies like this, hopefully, make people stop and think. The horrors that are going on in the rest of Africa are unbelievable. What those Child Soldiers are forced to endure!!
Cheers. Have an excellent weekend. Hope you like the pics of our little piece of paradise.
